Buliwyf approached him one early morning and asked Ahmed directly if he knew how to “draw sounds”, and to show him. He figured out that their Arab companion, Ahmed, was a smart man, who probably knew how to read and write. It was a refreshing change to see them displaying enormous cunning and guile in several scenarios. It’s too easy to think of them as dumb brutes, but the movie has several scenes that show us how intelligent and calculating they are.

The 13th Warrior is a movie based on Michael Crichton’s novel, Eaters of the Dead.
